Education
The BECG can host elementary school field trips! In a three hour activity, children participate in 4 interactive garden activities such as learning about worms and ladybugs, harvesting seeds, learning about pollination, and helping out the garden in the form of planting, harvest, or weeding. Teachers interested in learning more about field trip opportunities should call Jenny at 801-845-2720.
